Body Island is inspired by a vision of the performer's body as a landscape and a site of refuge. In using imagery that evokes a natural catastrophe, the work is a metaphor for how society anticipates and responds to crisis. One performer and ten rats interacted in a closed structure as it flooded. Spectators reclined on the structure while the performance occurred beneath them. Three camera feeds of the action were live-edited by a director of photography and projected onto a screen suspended over the structure.

This work exists as a single channel video, as well as a 4-channel video installation that exposes the event that created the video in a nuanced way.
